I know that car will not be mine because I am set on two-tone black/grey exterior, or red (that car is champagne I think). I'll have to compare the 12-valve with the 24-valve, but if I know me I won't be happy with the 12. That means an '89 is out, but let the learning curve begin! |
Black is much easier to find then red ( Signal Red )
When I purchased my 88 300CE new in May of 88, I discovered that there were only 200 Signal Red coupes brought to the USA market.
From one who has owned the vehicle for twenty years, don't negate the M103-12V.
It's a motor that is simplistic, has great torque and doesn't give up much in performance to the M104-24V.
